Abstract

La présente invention a pour objet des compositions de poudres propulsives pour armes à tube à base de nitrocellulose et de nitroglycérine, comprenant également un composé organique énergétique uniquement constitué de carbone, d'azote et d'hydrogène et comportant au moins un hétérocycle azoté.The subject of the present invention is propellant powders compositions for nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin-based tube weapons, also comprising an energetic organic compound composed solely of carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen and comprising at least one nitrogen heterocycle.

La présence de ce composé organique énergétique permet simultanément d'abaisser l'effet érosif et d'augmenter la force de la poudre.The presence of this energetic organic compound simultaneously lowers the erosive effect and increases the strength of the powder.
